From notes @ sierra. I had no idea what to expect from this one, but excited since I love one-off BBC’s. Pours out a very cloudy hazy golden hue, decent white head. Aromas were ripping banana and clove, almost a little concentrated, very spicy. Palate is cloying and confusing, very thick, the citrus is present only up front and finishes very bitter. As I continue to sip and it warms up, it gets smoother, but still a rough beer. Glad to have, but don’t need again.

Had this during the Backwoods Brewdown up at Hill Farmstead. Thought this was a neat idea since it’s 100% wheat. Fuzzy wheat, musk on the nose. Sweet, big wheat flavors. Light musk and faint sweetness.

Tap at BBD10. Pours a hazy golden with a large foamy white head. Aroma of orange, banana and wheaties. Flavor of wheat/grains, orangey hop profile and some banana.

[BBD 10] Hazy golden color with a large, white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of light banana, wheat malt, citrus fruits, and some toasty malts. Taste of citrus, light banana, some spices, grass, and drier finish.

Draft @ EBF This 100% wheat beer pour golden with some white head. Citrus flavor and light yeast and spice flavors, texture was a bit chewy. Was a bit plain.

Dart at EBF. Pours a hazy golden body with a white head. Citrus, and wheat tones with some orange peal and lemon grass dryienss. Full and super wheat y with a bread y yeasty tone of sweetness and light spiced citrus. Okay.

EBF 2010 Session One: Slightly hazy light golden pour with an off white head. Hoppy aroma- quite clean with a citrusy C-hop presence. Light body with a clean worty flavor. A bit boring with a grainy finish. They should have used a Hefeweizen yeast and not such a clean strain, in my opinion.
